Lust List

Image
It's SUMMER!! How good has this summer been so far too? As in we have actually had sun... SUN! So I thought before the weather takes a diver (which lets face it we all know it will) I would give you an insight into my Summer lust list. Mainly from ASOS not that that is a shock to anyone. But ASOS never fail to make me fall in love over and over, if I ever have a moment of doubt with what they can offer me a quick refresh of the new in page just get my little heart fluttering again! I have already been on holiday *cries that its already over* and I had some of my favourite outfits EVER from ASOS for my trip to Cannes. THIS JUMPSUIT. Oh my god. I have never loved anything like I love this. This is the cutest summer outfit, its really fine pinstripe and the loveliest she of blue.The only issue I did have was that it occasionally felt like my boobs were going to fall out but a trusty line of tit tape did the job just fine. The front ties with two big bows and fastened ...

Seth Cohen was my first love

The last month or so has flown by! As if we are already in July. Terrifying. I've been a bit slow on the blog posts lately, I've sort of felt a lack of inspiration to write about much but something yesterday spurred on my need to write. ALEXA CHUNG IS DESIGNING HER OWN LINE. Yes that is right, our favourite style icon is finally adding to her mark on the fashion world with her own collection.  This got me thinking about how quickly your taste and opinions on everything change. From clothes you like to food you eat. So I thought I would take a look at some of my first favourites I'm talking teenage years by the way this isn't going to be a break down of my first word and hair cut. 1. First TV Addiction - The OC Seth Cohen was my first love. Hands down, his geeky little comments and penguin jumpers were all I needed through the OC. I actually remember it was on every Tuesday night and it was the highlight of the week! Also I mea...

"It's the most ...... time of the year"

Ok so Christmas is round the corner. Therefore the emotional rollercoaster of the festive season is upon us? Why an emotional rollercoaster I hear you ask? WELL. Our whole year runs up to Christmas, we start in January by thinking...at least I have pretty much 12 months to save for Christmas because last year wiped me out! (Of course by the time January Sales hit we are all majorly poor again anyway) but hey its the thought that counts! Now I love Christmas, I am a die hard lover of opening presents, people seem to find it odd but I actually enjoy the physical opening not necessarily the gift inside, weird I know but thats what I also blame my ridiculous addiction to ASOS on so.... The only issue I have with Christmas is that it just appears! One minute people are stressing about Halloween costumes then the next morning you wake up and your street is filled with multicoloured light and people are in work demanding gift recipes and gift wrapping (gift wrapping by the wa...

Oh my god, can you make me a dress?

So people are starting Uni in the next few weeks and there will be a whole new breed to Fashion students hitting the BA Hons world.  Coming from  a Fashion PROMOTION graduates point of view I think it is necessary for someone who has walked in the carefully chosen footsteps of a Fashion student to prepare others (and those who will be talking to others about) wh at it is actually like for us to study fashion. Now I live with one of my best friends and she is a Fashion Design Graduate. She can whip up a dress or a skirt within a few hours whilst I sit there looking like she just found a unicorn at the end of a rainbow. I can't even manage to sew on a button...this leads me to my point. As a 'Fashion' student we know, within our own little Fashion bubble what the different areas of Fashion mean. There are however, people who just DO NOT GET IT. These are the people that you are guaranteed to have these 5 annoying/ soul destroying comments off when studying ...

The 50 stages of falling in love with ASOS

Image
1. It's Sunday and all you want to do is shop BUT it's raining and you live a mile from town. 2. But you remember a magical place someone told you about. 3. ASOS 4. Oh the joys. It's like being in a dream. 5. But wait...I have no money. 6. But then again it's only two weeks until payday. 7. But what about food? 8.  DUH 9. But Nutella is food. 10. No no I can do this. I can sacrifice solids for the sake of a dress. 11. HOLD THE PHONE NEW SEASON. 12. Wow...I didn't realise flares were ok. 13. Oh they're not. Phew. 14. You know what just a quick flick through shoes won't hurt anyone. 15. Come on, I haven't treated myself to shoes for at least a month. 16. These are only £20 17.  18. Then the adrenaline rush starts 19. I'm pretty sure I only ACTUALLY added three things to my basket. 20. 4 at a push. 21. 22. ONE HUNDRED ENGLISH POUNDS. 23. I need a...

A catch up

Image
Well blogging world its safe to say that balancing my sudden adult life and my blogging life is becoming extremely difficult! My poor baby has been abandoned for over a month! I haven't had the spare time until right this second to take the time to type! Quick catch up on it all...I have a new flat, a new job and still unfortunately no new man (and Robbie Williams still hasn't fallen in love with me)  BUT luckily in my time off from blogging quite a lot has happened...my favourite thing being quite recently with Orlando Bloom punching Justin Bieber, but we'll brush over that. OH and also I graduated!!! WOOO!!!  I have also become the proud owner of some beautiful additions to my Michael Kors and Vivienne Westwod collections....its been a great couple of months hey! So I finally Graduated!!  I went to see Paul Weller with my Dad which was an amazing night! Made better by the fact that it was sunny so I could wear my new Westwood sunnies...
